Blue Cross Blue Shield Waiving Swine Flu Vaccine Fees for Members

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas members can expect an added boost when it comes to fighting the Swine Flu bug this fall.

The insurance provider plans to waive co-pays and deductibles for the vaccine.

They say they're offering the added help, because the swine flu is expected to be a serious threat this flu season.

The Centers for Disease Control recommends at-risk groups like pregnant women, teachers and health care workers, anyone six-months to 24-years-old, as well as the elderly with compromised immune systems, to go ahead and get vaccinated.
